#Spotted on Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand
Two young humans (10?) are industriously draping a fence with neon green fake cobwebs.
Having MANY detailed discussions about the type of spider that would be living in their garden and how it could hypothetically eat any trick or treaters dropping by that evening.
A VERY BIG dog (Mastiff cross bull elephant?) feels that his nose DEFINITELY must be buried against his very serious human's plums.
Very Serious Human trying to have a very serious conversation about politics, pretending the deep breathing situation around his nethers is DEFINITELY not happening.
Three small humans (4 to 6?) are strutting along while brandishing pink balloons.
Looking disdainfully around at the other market goers, game faces on.
Pink balloon people are obviously the coolest people in the world.
Two men (40s?) are standing outside a voting station while debating life, the universe and their differing political views.
Joking and giving each other hell for being on the wrong side of the political fence.
Finally giving each other a manly hug and a back pat before going in to vote.
A small human (3?) is hugging Mum VERY tightly. Saying in the most earnest voice: "Mum, I LOVE YOU!"
Mum gives his ribs a tickle. "Love you too ya little terror." Giggles and laughter in the air.
